Police have removed cordon from the evacuated shopping center in the Swedish city of Vasteras: no traces of explosives were found on the scene.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Earlier in the day, the shopping center was evacuated as police received a report on an alleged explosion threat in an IKEA store. The police were deployed near the mall, along with the fire service and the ambulance, and people were instructed to leave the site.

"We have not detained anyone," local police spokesman Johanna von Wowern told the VLT newspaper.

She added that the investigators will continue their work on the information available.
